| * | Sandra Ung | | | Requiring a study and plan regarding the installation of tactile paving on sidewalks. | Introduction | This bill would require the Commissioner of Transportation to conduct a one-year study and implement a five-year plan concerning the installation of tactile paving on sidewalks in New York City. The study would involve the identification of high-priority City blocks for installation based on specific criteria, evaluation of best practices from other jurisdictions, consultation with disability advocacy groups, and evaluation of existing City laws regarding sidewalk maintenance and liability. Based on the study’s findings, the Commissioner would develop and implement a plan, to be submitted to the Mayor and Speaker of the Council and posted online, that includes a schedule for installation, a budget, design standards, guidelines on maintenance responsibility and liability, and public outreach strategies. The Commissioner would have to submit annual progress reports on plan implementation to the Mayor and the Speaker and post these reports online. | | |

| * | Linda Lee | | | Requiring the department of transportation to notify property owners ordered to repair sidewalks of existing department plans to make repairs on same sidewalks. | Introduction | This bill would require that the City’s Department of Transportation (“DOT”), prior to issuing a notice of violation requiring a property owner to repair a defect on a sidewalk abutting the owner’s property, to first determine if DOT or the Department of Parks and Recreation (“Parks”) already have plans to repair or upgrade the same section of sidewalk. To avoid redundant work, DOT’s notice of violation should also notify the property owner of the planned DOT or Parks sidewalk repair or upgrade. Where such planned sidewalk repair or upgrade would begin within 90 days, no notice should be given to the property owner. | | |
